Today, I'm going to be playing a little game.
A little game you might be familiar with, called Would You Rather, where I ask myself if I would rather do one thing or do another thing.
And then I explain my reasoning for my answer in far too much detail.
But we're not just playing any game of Would You Rather.
No, no, no.
We are playing Would You Rather Fashion Edition.
I'm going to be facing fashion dilemmas that make me sick to my stomach, make my knees quiver.
And we're going to do it together.
And it's going to be fun.
So without further ado, I guess we should just begin.
The first would you rather question is would you rather only be able to wear black and white outfits or only be able to wear bright, colorful outfits?
This is hard for me because I'm making a decision for the rest of my life.
If it were a, would you rather wear only black and white for a year or only wear bright colors for a year?
The answer would be simple.
Right now, at this point in my life, I'm wearing a lot of black and white.
I'm wearing a lot of neutrals.
It's just what I'm into right now.
And there's a good chance that this is just my taste as an adult and it won't change much for the rest of my life.
But I can't be so sure.
And that's why this is a tough one for me.
Right now, I love black and white.
I feel the most confident in black and white and neutrals.
I gravitate towards that probably 75% of the time that I'm getting dressed for something.
I don't really have that much color in my closet.
I have a little bit of color in my closet, but no bright colors.
I'm not really into wearing bright colors right now.
However, my style has changed so much over the years and I can never really predict where it's going.
Like in the moment that I'm wearing something, I'm into something.
I think I'm gonna love it forever.
I'm really convinced.
And then, three years later, I look back at something that I really thought I would love forever and I'm like ew, what the fuck?
So I don't know.
I can't predict how I'm going to feel in five years, 10 years, 20 years.
But I will say that there's something about wearing black and white, more specifically black.
There's something about wearing black that makes me feel so chic.
I don't know.
There's something about it.
Every time I put on an all black outfit or a black and white outfit, I'm like, wow.
Wow.
This is fashion.
This is chic.
There's something about it, the way that it looks on me with my bleached hair.
Like I just, I feel so good in black and white every single time I wear it.
Whereas sometimes I'll put on a bright, colorful outfit And I don't know like.
I almost feel unrefined.
Like bright colors these days make me feel less confident, less chic for some reason.
So I think I'm going to go with black and white, even though I'm a little bit hesitant to say that, because that's the phase I'm in now.
And so that's kind of clouding my judgment.
But I do think that that's sort of me maturing and appreciating, You know, a more simple palette, a more refined palette.
But who knows?
Who knows?
Five years down the line, I might get over this phase and want to wear bright colors.
But right now I feel so much more confident in black and white that it almost is incomprehensible to me that.
Wearing bright colors could ever make me feel more confident than the way that wearing black and white makes me feel.
There's just something so refined about it and so classic about it and so chic and so sharp about it that I feel like I'm always going to prefer that.
So that's my answer.
And I'm pretty confident in it.
Yeah.
Okay, next.
Would you rather wear the same outfit every single day or never repeat an outfit again?
Ew.
I think my initial gut response is never repeat an outfit ever again because...
I do love fashion, even though I'm in a phase of my life now where I'm scaling back.
You know, I'm not buying new clothes as often.
I'm refining my existing wardrobe.
I did a big purge, you know, like maybe a year ago now.
I don't even remember.
Maybe it was six months ago.
Literally can't remember.
But I got rid of a a little while ago.
And ever since then I've been further refining what I have in my closet and rarely buying new pieces of clothing, only when it's something that I absolutely adore and that I know I'm gonna wear time and time again.
And I've been incredibly successful at that.
Even though I'm in a phase of my fashion journey where I'm scaling back, I'm buying less clothes, I'm re-wearing clothes more often, I'm re-wearing outfits more often.
I'm experimenting a lot less in my day-to-day life anyway, I still do enjoy the experience of picking out a new exciting, fresh outfit.
That's still a hobby for me.
Even though it looks a little bit different these days, it's a little bit less... adventurous maybe.
It's a little bit less.
I'm a little bit less focused on wearing a brand new outfit every day, with fresh new pieces that no one's ever seen.
Like that used to be a priority for me and it's not really anymore.
Now I repeat outfits all the time.
But the thing is, I don't just repeat one outfit.
I repeat a bunch of different outfits, like 20 different outfits.
And So the idea of wearing one outfit every single day for the rest of my life does seem a little bit depressing, because this is something that I still really enjoy doing.
However, there is a little part of me that thinks about the idea of never having to pick out an outfit again, like picking out the perfect outfit that I feel comfortable and confident in time and time again and just never thinking about it again.

But I'm trying to think about what I would wear if I had to wear the same outfit every single day for the rest of my life.
And that's a really hard decision to make.
I mean, what comes to mind to me is black shirt, black pants, black shoes, just all black.
That's probably what I would do because that is the most timeless outfit ever.
But also, what if it's the summertime and I want to wear shorts, but the outfit that I am destined to wear every day for the rest of my life is long pants and a long sleeve.
I don't know.
I think that I would choose to never repeat an outfit ever again.
Which would be really stressful and exhausting, having to pick out a brand new outfit every single day for the rest of my life.
I would have to buy so many new clothes.
It would be financially irresponsible.
It would take up a lot of time and energy.
But because I do like... dressing for an occasion.
I do like experimenting in my closet.
I do like coming up with a new outfit that makes me feel a new way.
I think I'm gonna choose that over wearing the same outfit every day, because I would really miss the experience of getting to play with fashion on myself.
However, There is something a little bit romantic about the idea of wearing the same outfit every single day for the rest of my life.
Like removing that choice does kind of seem appealing to me in some ways.
But I think there would be too many complications with it.
You know, choosing an outfit...
Now and then having to wear it for the rest of my life, but maybe in five years.
I don't like it anymore.
What then?
You know, but also like I would have to choose something so comfortable or else I would be miserable.
And sometimes I like to go out to dinner and something maybe a little bit more uncomfortable, but super chic.
I'd be so sad not to be able to like... get dolled up in a heeled boot.
You know, I'm not going to wear a heeled boot every single day for the rest of my life.
So that means I'd never be able to wear a heeled boot again.
And I love the way I feel click clacking around in a heeled boot.
So it's sad.
And I think I would have to choose something that prioritizes comfort over aesthetics, because it's all I'm ever going to wear for the rest of my life.
But that makes me sad because, even though I love being comfortable and Sometimes a little bit of discomfort is what makes an outfit really good.
Just a little bit.
Just a little bit.
Even though I am very particular about how my clothes feel on my body, and I do prioritize comfort.
Wearing a heeled boot is not the most comfortable shoe in the world, but it's comfortable enough for an evening.
But if it's the only outfit I'm wearing, that means I have to wear a heeled boot twice, going for a walk in New York City and then going to the grocery store.
It's like, I don't want to wear a heeled boot all the time.
It's comfortable for a few hours when going out to dinner, but it's not for existing all day long.
I don't know what I would do.
And it would have to be simple or else there'd be too much risk of me hating it eventually.
But then that removes all sense of self-expression.
But maybe that would be sort of freeing in a weird way.
As much as I love fashion and I love what it does for my self-expression, I guess I love how I'm able to express myself through it.
Sometimes I can overthink it.
I can become sort of obsessed with it. in a way that is maybe exhausting.
Like there are times when I don't want to leave the house because my outfit isn't good enough yet.
That's kind of stressful.
There are times where I put on an outfit and I'm like this is cool, but it doesn't really feel like me maybe.
Like it feels, it doesn't really feel like me.
Or sometimes I put on an outfit that I think is cool, but I'm like ah, but it's like not that flattering.
You know there's a lot of thought that goes into my day-to-day outfit, when I'm experimenting especially, and so removing that would be kind of freeing.
But I'm ultimately choosing to never repeat an outfit again and it would be sad because there's nothing I love more than picking out a really good outfit and then re-wearing it for like six months straight until I get sick of it and then I, you know, kind of ditch it and wear those pieces with other things.
You know, but like it's so fun to find something new in my closet, find something exciting in my closet.
And when I mean something new, I mean like a new combination of pieces and then to just wear it out.
I love that.
I love outfit repeating, but you know what?
It's something.
It's something I'm going to have to say goodbye to, because I'm never repeating an outfit again.
Okay, next.
Would you rather dress like it's Coachella every day or like it's Paris Fashion Week every day?
Okay, let me explain to you what I wear to Coachella and what I wear to Paris Fashion Week.
To Coachella, I would say my outfits these days are much more casual.
I used to really get dolled up.
Like, I would really try to show up in an outfit.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, I'll give you one of my sample outfits from past years when I used to really be into it.
Like big, chunky black boots, white jeans with pink like fuzzy stuff at the around the ankle with a bunch of paintings all over the jeans, a like strappy black top, my hair tied back in little pink like hair ties and big glittery sunglasses shit like that.
I remember one time I wore these bright rainbow striped metallic pants with like bright yellow boots and like a black shiny bikini top and like a latex yellow choker.
It was ridiculous, like that's what I used to wear to Coachella, and Last year when I went, I was much more chill.
Like I wore outfits that I would wear anyway.
Honestly, though, I look back, it was only a few months ago.
Coachella was in April.
I'm recording this in September.
I look back at my Coachella outfits from this year and I cringe.
Even though they were so much more chill and casual than what I normally wear, they still were a little bit too much for me.
Like I look back and I'm like, Emma, you had Coachella delusion.
There's something about music festivals in music festival fashion.
The fashion rules at a music festival, especially at Coachella, are so different from the fashion rules in the real world.
Like at Coachella, you can just wear a bikini top around.
You can wear tiny little booty shorts with your butthole out.
You can wear fishnets with like your hair tied up with string lights wrapped around your hair.
Like you can do whatever the fuck you want.
Nothing's weird there, because it's sort of this bubble of a bunch of people hanging out listening to music, wearing crazy outfits, taking Instagram photos.
Like, it's dystopian.
It's weird.
It's, like, not real life.
It's this, like, bizarre reality that is... Yeah, it's just not real.
The fashion rules are different there.
And what is a good outfit at Coachella to people who love Coachella... is a weird outfit ultimately.
It's a bizarre, it's like a different, there's a different style there.
You know what I mean?
It's a different, it's almost like themed.
You know what I mean?
It's like going to a costume party.
You're not wearing that shit out to any other occasion, really.
It's like a very specific aesthetic and dress code almost.
And I feel like I even still sort of have Coachella fashion delusion, where I'll put together an outfit for Coachella that I would never wear outside of Coachella because the dress code is different.
But then I look back at it later, like now, and I'm like, ooh, what was that?
Like, my Coachella outfits this year were pretty chill.
But I honestly look back and I don't like them that much.
Like, I would have worn something different.
They're on my Instagram, so you can find them on there if you want to see.
But they were cute.
But I don't know.
I look back and I'm like, eh.
There's something off about them.
I just don't like them.
They're cringe to me now for some reason.
I still have all those pieces that I wore to Coachella in my closet.
And I love all those pieces.
But I don't like the way that I styled them together.
It just...
I don't know.
I just don't like them.
But anywho, so Coachella fashion is very much, it's festival wear, you know, it's like, it's hot.
So it's a lot of tank tops, shorts, skirts.
It's ideally comfy shoes if you know what's good for you. because you're walking a lot.
It's accessorizing a lot.
That's sort of the Coachella aesthetic.
Now the Paris Fashion Week vibe is very much going as fashion as you possibly can, wearing the most absurd, fashion-forward outfit you possibly can, doing the most avant-garde, exciting makeup you possibly can.
You know, bleaching your eyebrows so that you have more space to do eyeshadow, wearing wigs.
That's the Fashion Week vibe, at least for me these days.
That's what I get excited about when going to Fashion Week.
And again there's sort of like a Fashion Week delusion where because it's sort of this bubble where everyone is there to, sort of like, wear their most fashionable outfit the dress code is just so different than normal life.
Like people aren't in.
I mean, there are some people who go to fashion shows wearing pretty simple outfits, but see, I like to really get weird.
You know, that's what's fun about it for me is that it's like getting to play dress up.
So I'll wear stuff that I wouldn't normally wear on a day to day basis.
But that works because for fashion week, when I'm going to fashion shows I'm I get to borrow clothes from brands to go to these events.
I don't buy these things.
I borrow them, wear them, and then give them back.
It's great.
It's a perfect.
It works perfectly because I get to really experiment when I attend these fashion shows, But then I get to give it back.
I'm not committing to owning these experimental pieces.
So I would say overall, the Paris Fashion Week dress code is just getting as avant-garde and artistic and weird as possible.
And those outfits are definitely not I mean the looks in general are definitely not what you normally see someone wearing on a day-to-day basis.
A lot of times, the outfits that I wear to shows are avant-garde.
Now, that's not always the case.
I will say, there are times when I wear something pretty simple.
But my goal is always to wear the weirdest thing I can find.
From an aesthetic perspective, I would rather wear Paris Fashion Week clothes all the time.
I would rather dress like it's Paris Fashion Week all the time.
Because those outfits, to me, are more interesting, more expressive.
And I just think, overall my Paris Fashion Week outfits represents me better than my Coachella outfits.
My Coachella outfits, they're fine, but like... they're not that good.
You know what I mean?
They're not like that.
Cause I'm balancing comfort with dressing up.
And nowadays I don't even know what my Coachella style is.
Like I'm, I'm kind of over really getting dressed up and like wearing sparkly rainbow pants.
Like I'm over that.
And then I tried to play it down this year, but then I ended up still over-accessorizing, I think, and I just cringe at it.
So I don't even know what my Coachella style is, but I don't think it's a good representation of me.
I think it's very confused.
My Fashion Week style is much more refined. and I like the way it portrays me better.
But that's because they're not meant to be comfortable.
They're meant to be interesting looking.
Like I've worn, you know, like massive coats, right?
That have like, you know, very big stiff shoulders and sleeves that are too long.
And I wore that not because it was a comfortable coat, but because it looked really cool.
You know, it's like this boxy, stiff, sculptural coat.
It's so uncomfortable.
I couldn't bend my arms.
I couldn't, my hands didn't come out the bottom of the coat, right?
It was uncomfortable, but it looked so cool.
What's fun about Fashion Week for me is that I get to wear things that I wouldn't normally wear, and then I also get to watch fashion go down the runway, which is something I find incredibly interesting and incredibly entertaining.
It's a hobby for me.
It's something I really deeply care about looking at.
It's a full 360 fun experience for me.
Even though I'm wearing something uncomfortable and costumey, it's like part of the experience.
You know, you dress for the occasion.
You're going to see interesting fashion.
So then you dress up in interesting fashion.
And that's you know, what makes it fun is that you get to participate in it, but you also get to perceive it.
And it's fun, but incredibly uncomfortable.
Also, I'm usually wearing uncomfortable shoes.
There was this one time where I wore a size nine shoe to a fashion show and I'm a size six and a half seven.
A size nine boot I wore to the show because this particular brand didn't have any shoes in my size.
And They were like, we got a nine.
And I was like all right, we'll just put something in the front of my shoe like a little ball of fabric or something, a little ball of tissue paper or something.
And just, I'll just scoot my feet around, I guess.
And I did almost trip many times, but I survived and I did not trip.
So that was good.
But my fashion week outfits are incredibly uncomfortable.
So those two stories are just the tip of the iceberg.
Every single fashion week look has something about it that's uncomfortable, I swear.
Whether it's a really high heel, or it's a shoe that's not the right size, or it's a material that's itchy, or it's something that's impossible to sit down in.
I mean, it's very uncomfortable.
So that's the only thing that really stresses me out.
If I'm going to dress like that every day, I'm going to be uncomfortable.
But you know what?
I hate my Coachella vibe so much that I'm going to choose my Fashion Week vibe over that, because I'd rather look like Fashion Week every day than my confused, not cute Coachella vibe.

Would you rather have to wear heels every day or sweatpants every day?
This is really tough.
If you would have asked me this five years ago, I would have immediately said sweatpants and then said next question, because I used to love wearing sweatpants around.
But the older I get, the more I don't like that.
I really don't like wearing sweatpants out.
I'll wear a cute pair of sweatpants over my spandex shorts when I'm going to a workout.
Take them off, work out, put them back on after I shower, or whatever.
I'll wear sweatpants then.
But honestly, when I'm wearing sweatpants that are like... not sweatpants.
They're more like a cuter shape.
They're still kind of sweatpants though, but not like the classic drawstring sweatpants that are tight at the ankle.
I don't, I don't, I just don't like those anymore.
I feel, I don't feel good when I wear them for some reason.
I mean, physically I feel good because they're comfortable, but like mentally I don't feel good.
I don't know.
I feel like I'm not representing who I am as a person.
I'm a very, I like fashion.
I like feeling put together these days.
So wearing sweatpants makes me feel like I'm not fashionable and I'm not put together.
And that's a bummer because I like feeling that way.
Now, on the other hand, heels.
I have a really hard time with heels.
I will say, the older I get, the better I get at it, but I have a really hard time with heels.
I swear there's something wrong with my foot anatomy because I get horrible sharp stabbing nerve pain in my feet when I wear heels.
It shoots all the way up my legs.
I don't know how people do it, but that's only when it's a really high heel.
I can wear a lower heel, honestly, all day and be fine.
But once it starts getting to a real sexy height, like once it gets to the height where I'm like ooh, I look really good in these.
That's when it hurts.
I'm going to say I'd rather have to wear heels every day because lower heels are great.
Like I love a lower heel.
Is it still kind of uncomfortable?
Yes.
But I would actually rather be forced to wear a lower heel every day, even though it's a little bit uncomfortable, over sweatpants.
Now, if this would you rather was more specific and it said would you rather have to wear really uncomfortable, really high heels every day?
Or wear sweatpants every day?
To be honest, I would have to choose sweatpants because I get so much joy from walking.
I love walking.
Like, it's my main form of cardiovascular exercise.
I love walking.
I walk, walk, walk all day long on the treadmill, outside.
Walking is so good for my mind, body, and soul.
I love walking.
And I love being able to walk in an outfit that I'm wearing.
Like, I don't... Let's say, like...
I'm going and getting dinner with a friend and I'm wearing a cute outfit.
I would like to be able to go on a walk after dinner with my friend.
If I was wearing a super high heel, I can't go on a walk after dinner.
I can't just decide, ooh, I want to go on a walk right now because that shoe does not allow that.
But I love walking to the point where I want to be able to go on a walk at any time I want, in any circumstance I want.
And if I had to wear a super high heel every day, I couldn't do it.
In like a little kitten heel, sure, I could go for a walk.
It's not as comfortable.
I might roll an ankle a little bit sometimes, but I could do it and it's tolerable.
High heel though, no.
So I'm going to say I'd rather wear heels every day, but that's assuming that I can choose the height of the heel.
It's just any heel.
An added bonus too is if I wore heels every day, I'd get really good at it.
Maybe I'd build up foot muscles or something and I'd and get really good at it.
And that would be kind of fun because I actually really love how a heel looks.
I wear heels to every single fashion event I attend, pretty much because I like the way that they look.
I do, but I hate the way that they feel.
And I'm not trying to be cute.
Like, oh my God, heels are so uncomfortable.
I actually think there's something genuinely wrong with my feet, because I have the worst high heel tolerance out of anyone I know.
And I feel like the pain, I have a high pain tolerance as well.
I notoriously have a high pain tolerance.
Higher than most.
Everyone says that.
But allegedly, I have a high pain tolerance.
And I've like broken bones and not cried.
You know what I mean?
When I was younger too.
I was younger, breaking bones, not crying.
Fully broke my whole hand, didn't cry.
You know, like, I don't know.
I'll have like some really fucked up period cramps.
I can't even believe how bad.
They are.
And I'm not going to cry.
I just it's not that bad that I'm going to cry.
But it's like sometimes I have a period cramp that literally blows my mind.
I'm like, I can't believe this feels this bad.
Like, I can't even believe it.
It's almost incomprehensible how painful it is.
But I'm not like shouting out in pain.
I can handle a lot of pain, I think.
OK, but the heel I really struggle with.
It's some of the worst pain.
The nerve pain in the foot, it's some of the worst pain.
It's really like torture, but I love how they look.
So anyway, it's a bummer.
So I'm answering that I would rather have to wear heels every day, but that's only if I can choose the height.
Then I'd choose sweatpants and it'd be a bummer, but I'd have to find some cute ones.
Okay, next.
Would you rather never be able to wear glasses again or never be able to wear makeup again?
This is one of the hardest questions I've ever been asked in my life.
I'm not kidding because I really, really love both.
I love glasses.
Like you don't get it, okay?
I love glasses.
I almost never leave the house without glasses anymore. either sunglasses or optical glasses.
I don't just love a sunglass, no.
I love glasses, period.
I have a really hard time feeling like an outfit is complete without glasses.
I love the vibe that they add.
A pair of glasses can change the entire energy of an outfit.
It's kind of amazing, because the face is really the focal point of every look right, you know, the face is so incredibly important in how an outfit reads, you know.
And like adding accessories to the head, to the face, can add so much to an outfit, even though they're small little details, like a little hat, a little headband, a little pair of glasses, even though these are small things on the head, because the head is so powerful in how we perceive people, it really makes a difference.
And ever since I sort of tapped into that I like can't untap glasses change everything for me.
I it is so hard for me to leave the house without a pair of glasses on.
I don't, I can't even remember the last time I did like.
I am always wearing glasses and the thing is I have a little stigmatism, or is it a stigmatism?
I have a stigmatism in one of my eyes.
I can't even remember.
So I have a little prescription in my reading glasses and But that's not like.
My eyes get a little bit fatigued sometimes, but it only really bothers me when I'm reading.
My vision overall is pretty good.
So I don't like need to be wearing glasses.
I just am addicted to how they look and how they impact an outfit.
So like it's weird.
It's like weird.
I cannot leave the house.
I also feel like too, they weirdly help me socially.
Like I feel like when I have glasses on, it protects me socially.
Like I feel like there's like a barrier, like I feel naked without glasses on so weird because I never wore glasses before, because I never needed them.
So it's very bizarre that I have this sort of psychological attachment to them because I didn't grow up with them.
This developed more recently.
So bizarre.
So anyway, now you understand how I feel about glasses.
But I also really love makeup.
I love makeup more now than ever, too.
I didn't always love makeup as much, but the older i get, the more i love it, the more i enjoy doing it, the process of doing it um, the more i enjoy experimenting with it, especially if i'm going to some sort of fashion event and i'm working with a makeup artist who can do something cool on me that i could never do on myself, like i love that.
I find it to be so fun.
It's an extension of my outfit.
It can make a look in the same way glasses does, can make an entire outfit look different or read differently.
Oh my God, this is hard.
To be honest, I can't believe I'm about to say this, but I think this is my answer.
I think I'd rather never wear glasses again.
Do I mean that?
Oh my God, I'd be so sad.
My reasoning for saying that is that I feel like if I never could wear glasses again, I'd really get good at makeup.
And I'd almost like, well, see, here's the thing.
In my personal life, glasses are more important to me.
Makeup is arguably more important to me, even though I'll still wear glasses when I go out to a party and a lot of times to an event too.
Fuck.
I said that I would rather give up glasses because I feel like...
I would get really good at makeup if I couldn't wear glasses anymore.
And I would sort of mimic the feeling, maybe a pair of glasses would give with makeup, if that makes sense.
Like, let's say I want to add a cute little pair of round little optical glasses.
Well, if I can't wear glasses, then maybe I do like a cute, super sort of natural look.
Or if I wanted to add a big pair of shield glasses, but obviously in this scenario, I can't wear glasses, I would do a big smoked out like... you know, gray, black, smoky eye.
And I would kind of like mimic the feeling.
But realistically though, I think I'd rather be able to wear glasses because, on a day-to-day basis, I think glasses are more important to me than makeup.
There are less occasions in my day-to-day life where makeup is more important than glasses.
But I'd miss lip liner.
Oh my God.
And like a little concealer.
That's all I need.
Fuck.
You know what?
I do think I'm going to choose glasses, because not only can they almost mimic the effect of makeup, sometimes like if you want a certain vibe, like if you want like a creepy punk, cool creepy vibe, you know, you could put on a big pair of shield sunglasses.
Yeah. with like super blacked out lenses or you could do like a black smokey eye.
But at least the glasses serve a purpose as well.
Do you know what I'm saying?
Like they're also protecting your eyes from the sun.
They're functional and fashionable.
And they do a really good job at giving a vibe.
But then the only challenging thing is when it's nighttime.
Sometimes a pair of sunglasses would really seal the deal, make the look.
But it's so dark that it's kind of annoying.
I just the other night actually, or not the other night, but somewhat recently went to a party and wore a pair of sunglasses to the party because I loved the way that they looked with my outfit.
I was honestly miserable.
Couldn't see a fucking thing.
Had to take them off like every like 20 minutes.
I'd like put them on for a little bit, be like wow, I love the way that these look, but I but I cannot see, and then eventually get pissed off by how much I couldn't see, and then take them off, put them in my bag and then be like wait, but I missed how they looked on, so I then put them back on and then it was just annoying.
You know, I'm going to say I'd rather never be able to wear makeup again, but just know that I'm really sad.
But I think the functional element of glasses, the fact that they help me read when my stigmatism is acting up and, you know, they protect my eyes from the sun.
They're very, very functional.
I think that element puts them in the lead, but just know that I would miss makeup dearly.
Dearly.
Okay, next.
Would you rather never be able to wear layers or never be able to wear accessories?
Okay.
I love layering.
Layering to me is what makes my personal style interesting, because I have a lot of basics in my closet, like a lot of plain things.
And in order to make them interesting, I layer them all on top of each other.
You know, that's how I create a vibe, because a lot of my closet on its own.
If you just pull out a piece, it's like okay, that's like a plain white tank top.
You know you pull out another piece like okay, that's like a plain black skirt.
But when you start layering things together, that's when it gets interesting.
You know, when you layer a tank top over a button-down shirt and then there's, you know, like a belt, and then there's like it next thing.
You know.
You know things are interesting.
I mainly layer tops, though I don't really layer bottoms, very often like I don't do a, or like skirt on top of skirt.
I don't really do that as much if ever, honestly.
Mainly I do it with tops, but it really makes a difference.
So much can be done through layering of shirts.
It's really kind of a magical thing.
And it's something that I do almost every Almost every day.
I'm actually not doing that right now.
Right now I'm just wearing a button-down shirt.
But if I were to take a ribbed white tank top and throw it over this black button-down, the entire vibe would change.
And it looks interesting.
You'd be able to see... well, I'm wearing a black button down, right?
If I put a thin ribbed white tank top over this, you know the ribs would expand and you'd be able to see a little bit of black through it.
And it looks like little black stripes almost.
If I were to tie the tank top in the back to make it super tight, almost like a corset.
Now there's a little tie detail on the back, you know.
That kind of adds a little bit of detail and it's even tighter.
So you can see even more like black stripes through the ribs.
It looks a little bit more dynamic, just having two layers on top of each other.
You have color blocking going on.
It's like more interesting colors happening.
You see what I'm saying?
Like so much happens when you layer.
I'm not trying to be like cringe and over explain it, but like, There's so much beauty in layering.
I would be very sad to never be able to layer again.
However, I also know that accessories are incredibly important.
When I think of accessories, I think of, you know, purses, which are functional.
So that's kind of like already layering is not functional.
I will say it's not.
It doesn't serve any purpose other than just looking interesting.
I think of bags.
I think of glasses.
I think of jewelry.
I think of belts.
I mean, the way that you make an outfit functional.
Well, there's a lot of accessories that aren't functional.
Accessories are like a no-brainer.
Not only because they're functional, like a purse is functional.
You know, a watch is functional.
For me, if it's digital.
If it's analog...
Not functional.
Can't read a damn thing.
I'll still wear it, but I will not know what time it is.
And I will be pulling my phone out of my bag to check.
But jewelry, unless it's a watch, is not functional.
But like a watch, that's functional.
Socks, that's an accessory, arguably.
Functional.
Prevents chafing in the shoe.
A belt.
You know, I wear belts sometimes that aren't holding my pants up, right?
I just will put them through the loops to put them through the loops because it adds a dimension.
I've even been known to sometimes belt a shirt, okay?
Which is something I never thought I would do, but I've started doing it recently.
And it's kind of hypocritical because I remember one time I said I don't like when belts don't serve a purpose.
And I still kind of stand by that.
But then I like every once in a while will be like, you know what this outfit needs?
It needs a fucking belt.
And sometimes it looks really cute to put a belt just like over.
Yeah, I don't know.
I was against that for a while, but I have come around and there are rare occasions when I think it makes sense.
And it looks cool and interesting, even though it doesn't serve a purpose.
So yeah, I'm a hypocrite.
Belts can be sort of just for the sake of adding another element, but also they can be functional as well.
Holding up a pair of pants that are, you know, baggy, whatever.
I think I'm going to have to choose accessories.
Like I would rather never be able to wear layers again, just so that I can still wear accessories, because I think accessories serve more of a purpose than layers.
Layers are more just for me to build an outfit that I think is more visually interesting, but there is no function there.
Like I don't, I can't even imagine walking around without a bag, without hoop earrings.
I love a big hoop, especially with my short hair, like a big hoop.
To not walk around with a big hoop, I would feel naked.
I love the way my big hoop looks with my short hair.
I find it like without a hoop, I feel naked.
I love my digital watch.
You know, I love socks.
I love belts.
Like it would be such a loss.
I'd lose so many things.
But I'm going to miss layering in this hypothetical world.
I'm going to miss it a lot.
Next, would you rather carry a tiny micro bag that fits nothing or a giant tote bag that weighs a ton?
There is nothing I hate more than a tiny micro bag that fits nothing.
Carrying that is like carrying nothing.
Why do you have that?
Why?
It's so useless.
That's just like a waste of hand space.
I would rather carry a heavy tote bag that weighs a lot, because well hmm, you know what?
Maybe I would just carry the tiny micro bag that fits nothing and then just put everything else in my pockets.
That might be the move, because it would kind of suck to carry something really heavy around all the time.
Although it would be a great workout, amazing workout, but it'd be miserable.
I mean, I'd be in really good shape, be incredibly healthy, cardiovascular.
Health would be up, up, up.
But I do think I'd be miserable.
So I think I'm going to choose the tiny micro bag.
And I'm literally, honestly, fuck it.
I'll put the tiny micro bag in my back pocket and then put all my other shit in my other pockets, just so that I'm not held down by something.
I really don't like that feeling.
That's why, you know again, as I mentioned earlier, I really struggle with heels because I can't just go on a walk whenever I want.
That like gets in the way of my sense of freedom, you know?
I feel like if I'm in pain, I can't do whatever I want.
And like a giant tote bag that weighs a ton, like I can't I'm not gonna wanna go on a walk if I'm carrying this huge bag right.
So I'm gonna choose the micro bag, but then I'm not even gonna use it.
I'm just gonna put it in my back pocket.
So that's my answer.
I'm just gonna start buying clothes with a bunch of pockets, and then that's the end of it.
Okay, next.
Would you rather have a closet full of clothes that are always one size too big or one size too small?
I hate the feeling of clothes that are too small.
Hate.
However, clothes that are one size too big can be fine, especially shirts.
Honestly, usually pretty, like, that's fine.
Pants?
It depends.
Sometimes a little oversized look is cute and it works.
But more often than not, it looks a little off.
You know what I'm saying?
But like, I don't like how it feels or how it looks when clothes are one size too small.
When something's too small, it's like it looks tight.
You know, it doesn't like it looks uncomfortable.
I'd say clothes that are too small almost never look good.
Like maybe that can look okay 2% of the time.
Whereas I think oversized clothing can look good closer to like 30% of the time.
So I'm going to go with clothes that are one size too big.
And I'm just going to be picky about what I wear.
I'm not going to wear like something that looks awkward one size too big.
You know I'm going to go in my closet and find the things that look cute, oversized and work and don't look off.
There are clothes in my closet that are one size too big and I wear them anyway because they're comfortable and it works, even though it's a little bit big.
I also just love loose clothes.
Oh my God.
I love loose clothes.
Honestly, a lot of my closet is really loose and baggy and I love it that way because I'm so comfortable.
But I'm actually entering into this phase, era of my life, where I'm like craving, like tighter, like a sexier vibe.
It's very weird.
I've like never felt this way.
But I'm like craving like a tight top and like a little short or like a little skirt.
And like I don't know, like I want to feel, like very like.
I want to feel like I've been craving like a hot vibe, fashion wise.
Yeah.
Which is weird because I've not felt like that really ever before.
I mean maybe like, maybe when I was like in high school I'd be like I want to wear a Halloween costume.
That's like inappropriate.
I don't know.
But you get what I'm saying.
Like back then, maybe.
I'm just, I'm shuddering, because it was like, oh my God, I think about myself in high school and I'm like stop stop, you don't need to do that right now.
You're a teenager.
Please relax.
You're in high school.
Like I just shudder at the thought.
But like maybe in high school yeah, when I wanted to like be cute to boys and I wanted boys to like me.
But then I kind of stopped chasing that.
But then I'm kind of back where I'm like, wait, now I kind of want to have a hot vibe.
But this time I think it's more for me.
I don't really care about... how other people perceive me.
I'm craving the way it makes me feel for me.
So that's cool.
But I have a lot of loose clothes.
So it's kind of tough for me to put together an outfit like that.
It's possible, but it's just I don't have that many options.
So anyway, long way of saying I would rather have a closet full of clothes that are always one size too big.
And that's my answer.
Okay, moving on.
Would you rather your fashion inspo be stuck on Pinterest boards from 2012 or TikTok trends from 2020?
I will say 2012 was a pretty cringe year, right?
Pretty cringe.
Like what was trendy in 2012?
Galaxy print, like big statement necklaces, peplum tops.
I don't know.
It was like Brandy Melville core in yet.
Like it was just, it was really chuggy, really bad.
Whereas 2020 trends, I don't know.
There was a lot of vintage stuff, a lot of retro patterns that were bright.
I feel like there's more options in 2020 trends.
I don't even really remember what the trends were in 2020.
I'm Googling it.
Okay, according to the internet.
Oh, oh yeah.
Top TikTok fashion trends in 2020 included the return of the Y2K fashion with colorful tops, low-rise jeans, claw clips, animal prints like cow and snake skin, and sustainable fashion through upcycled clothing and inverted stitching.
Other trends were sweater vests, corset tops, bold makeup, and...
Honestly, I'm going to say 2020 TikTok, to be honest, because I don't think there's anything worse than what was happening on Pinterest in 2012.
Oh my God.
Like an infinity scarf and skinny jeans and like statement, the statement necklaces.
Like I can't, I can't, I can't.
I'm looking at images online right now and I'm shuddering.
Oh my God.
So everything was hideous.
It was the worst era of fashion, end of story.
I don't think there's any.
I mean, arguably the 80s kind of had a rough moment there, fashion-wise.
Mainstream fashion was a little.
I mean, every era kind of has its cool fashion stuff and its kind of more cringe fashion stuff.
I think...
I don't know, though, like the 70s are kind of cute.
That was kind of cute.
The 60s were cute.
The 50s were cute.
I don't know.
Like after, after the 60s, I think it started to get a bit scarier and like more, like less timeless to me.
Like the 70s were pretty cute to me.
The 80s, it starts to get cringe.
The 90s, there's a lot of cringe going on there.
2000s, definitely a lot of cringe going on.
2010s, definitely a lot of cringe going on there.
2020s, definitely a lot of cringe going on now, probably.
There's probably always been bad fashion, but I think ever since the 80s there's been a lot of bad fashion floating around that I look back at and I'm like ugh, no.
You know what I mean?
At this point, I'm not talking about runway, though.
I'm talking about mainstream fashion. fashion.
I'm not talking like whatever you know.
There was amazing like some of the most iconic runway shows were in the 90s obvi.
So, to answer the question, I'm going to say I'd rather my fashion inspo be stuck on TikTok trends from 2020, because I think there's more options.
And even though I look back at 2020 fashion trends and I'm like, I don't really like it that much.
It's definitely better than 2012.
2012 is the worst.
It couldn't have been uglier.
It truly couldn't have.

Okay, moving on.
Would you rather only be able to wear workout clothing, slash athleisure or only be able to wear formal clothing?
I'm gonna say formal clothing like just gut reaction, because I'm at a point in my life now where I like to feel put together as often as possible.
And even though comfort is incredibly important to me and active wear athleisure is obviously more comfortable to me, I actually think formal wear can be comfortable.
It's possible.
So I would rather be incredibly formal all the time but find a comfortable version of that, than feel underdressed comfortable all the time wearing athleisure.
I also just don't really like the way athleisure or athletic wear looks.
I like wearing it when I'm exercising because it's functioning.
It's a functional, it's functional.
You know, it's serving a purpose.
But outside of that, I don't like to wear it.
And I love wearing formal clothing.
More so as I'm getting older.
I have not always felt this way.
I used to hate getting dressed up.
It just felt weird.
Like it didn't feel like me.
It was physically uncomfortable.
I always felt overdressed.
It made me.
I used to prefer to be underdressed rather than overdressed, whereas now I'm the opposite.
I also think there's more creativity in formal wear than there is in active wear.
It's like active wear is not like, I don't know.
It's not really fashionable.
It's like functional clothing.
I mean, there's definitely fashion within active wear, athleisure, you know?
Like there's trends within it.
There's its own sort of, again, dress code, as I described Coachella and Paris Fashion Week earlier.
Workout classes, the gym, exercise in general has its own sort of dress code.
But wearing it outside of that, I don't like personally.
I feel underdressed and I feel like everyone can see my whole butt in a legging, which sometimes is the vibe.
Sometimes, but not always.
Yeah.
Okay, next.
Would you rather shop in store only or shop online only for the rest of your life?
This is tough.
This is tough because I love shopping in store, because I'm able to try things on feel materials, whatever.
But my only gripe with it is number one.
I can't tell you how many times I've been in a store and they haven't had my size and I've had to go online later and order that item that I really wanted.
So that's kind of freaking me out.
Also, there's so much less in store, so many less options in store than there are online.
But I also order things online all the time that I think I'm going to like and then they show up and I hate them.
You know, there's no more effective shopping experience than shopping in person.
You're able to touch everything, try things on, assuming they have your size, and you can really make the most educated decision possible about whether or not you want to buy something.
However, you can order things online and then return them if they don't work out.
And I do that all the time.
I used to be terrible about it.
I'd order something not like it and then be like oh well, I guess well whoops, you know, and I'd keep it even if I didn't like it.
I'd like convince myself that I'll find a use for it and I never would.
But now that I'm good about returning things, this is tough.
You know what?
I'm going to say I'd rather never shop online, ever again, and only shop in person, because the experience of shopping in person is so much more fulfilling than the experience of shopping online.
I love shopping online.
It is amazing.
It is a joy.
Okay.
There's nothing I love more than laying in bed after a long day and like scrolling on an online shopping website.
Like I fucking love that.
Okay.
However, there is something to be said for the experience of going out in the world, touching things, talking to people.
That's so much more of a fulfilling experience that I'd rather sacrifice options to be able to fully enjoy the experience of shopping in person.
Because I do think getting out in the world is always going to be better than doing something virtually.
Because the real world and our participation in it is so important.
And so I'd rather that.
Yeah, that's my answer.
Okay, next.
Would you rather show up to an event wearing the exact outfit as someone else or wear something completely out of the dress code?
You know what?
I don't mind wearing the same outfit as someone else.
Fuck it.
It's not ideal.
It's kind of embarrassing and weird.
It's like, how does that even happen?
But at least there's a little bit of humor in that.
That's kind of funny.
OMG, we're wearing the same outfit.
Wait, we can take a picture together.
It's kind of funny.
We're twins for the night.
You can make that fun.
Whereas showing up super casual and everybody's dolled up, I hate that.
I hate that feeling.
Or vice versa, showing up super, super dressed up and everyone's like super casual.
I mean, that's less embarrassing to me, but I still don't like that feeling.
I feel embarrassed.
I feel singled out.
I feel like I'm sticking out like a sore thumb.
That sucks. twinning with somebody on accident is actually could be fun.
Like I could spin that in a fun way.
I don't care about.
I mean, I like wearing a unique outfit, that's unique to me.
But if I really like an outfit and somebody else happens to like the same outfit and they're wearing the same thing, like that's fine.
I can like the same outfit that somebody else likes.
And that doesn't mean that I'm not unique and I don't have my own unique taste.
There's naturally overlaps between other human beings.
Like that's not as embarrassing to me.
There's nothing embarrassing about showing up in the same outfit.
I think it can be kind of a novelty in a way.
Like, oh my God, great minds think alike.
Let's take a photo.
It's a funny photo.
Let's, you know, it's like a fun conversation starter.
Whereas like being overdressed, it's just kind of uncomfortable.
There's like not really a redeeming quality there.
It's hard to spin that in a positive way.
Okay, next.
Would you rather have people call your style boring or too much?
I would probably rather people call my style too much.
Yeah, too much.
Although people more so call my personal style boring these days.
A lot of people think...
My personal style these days is boring, which I can understand.
I used to wear a lot of bright colors.
I used to like experiment a lot and do a lot of things.
And as I've gotten older, I've just preferred a more neutral, tame color palette.
I like classic silhouettes.
I like timeless pieces because I don't want to participate in trends like I used to.
And I also don't like wearing colors and silhouettes that are unflattering on me for the sake of just wearing something that I haven't worn before.
I know myself.
I know what looks good on me.
I know what I like.
I know what I am going to wear time and time again.
And so that's kind of what I do these days.
And a lot of people do think it's boring.
But when it comes to my personal style, I just think that's the most responsible, fulfilling way for me to fill my closet and get dressed every day.
It's more reliable.
It's authentic to me.
It's just what I like the most.
And it might be boring to some, but to me, it's chic.
And, you know, it's maybe the intrigue in it is more in the subtle details.
And that's fine with me.
However, I do like to dress up into really interesting, weird things for fashion events or for other events or whatever.
Because I truly can experiment with no commitment.
Because again, I rent the clothes for the event from a brand and then I give them back.
So that's when I really get to have my fun.
And I think that's ultimately who I am on the inside is I love to experiment and stuff like that.
And that's also a significant part of my personal style.
I don't really think either of those things are that insulting to me.
I think people would consider my personal style to be more boring and would consider my style when I'm experimenting at fashion events or for photo shoots to be too much.
I think that's how people would perceive my style potentially.
Neither of them are that insulting to me.
But if I were to choose which one I think is more insulting boring, I think, because too much to me is not that much of an insult.
Too much just insinuates that it's like experimental and there's a lot going on.
But I think that that's like that can be the vibe sometimes.
Whereas boring is it's more negative to me.
It's like I never want to be thought of as boring in any capacity.
That sucks more.
But I don't take it personally when people think that my personal style these days is boring, because I get where they're coming from.
But it's just what I like at this time.
So deal with it, you guys.
It's just who I am.
Okay, next.
Would you rather walk the red carpet in an outrageous outfit that everyone talks about or in a safe outfit that nobody remembers?
Well, there's two ways to look at this.
The side of my brain that is like almost like a publicist.
It's so funny.
I think like a publicist sometimes, you know, because I'm in this industry.
And so I like, I know how a publicist thinks, I have publicists, you know, but I also think like a publicist.
Like when I see you know a pop star doing some sort of marketing, I'm like I totally know what they're doing.
Because my publicist brain turns on.
I'm like, oh, they're doing this so that the fans get excited about this.
That is like a hint about this.
Or, you know, when someone does like a publicity stunt of some sort, I'm like, oh, totally.
Like I get why they did that.
Like that's really smart.
Yeah.
I think the PR, the publicist in me, is like fuck it.
Wear the outrageous outfit and be the topic of conversation.
Why not?
Like, that's kind of fun, you know?
But then on a personal level, who I am as a person who's not thinking about my career and being discussed and talked about, which is kind of how I guess being a public figure works.
You just want people to be talking about you, I guess.
But me, on a personal level, I'd rather wear a simple outfit that no one talks about because, to be honest, it gives me so much anxiety when people talk about me a lot.
I like to be talked about a teeny bit, but not a lot.
So I'm conflicted because, like from a business perspective, from like a career perspective, I probably should choose to just wear the outrageous outfit and be talked about because that's like.
It's arguably like bad press a little bit, because it's like people think the outfit's ugly.
But it's not really bad press.
You know what I mean?
It's just a bad outfit.
Who cares?
You know, that's not that deep, right?
But then people are talking and then somebody might be like wait, who's this person?
Who wore the ugly outfit?
And then they might listen to my podcast and be like, wait, I love her vibe though.
The dress was ugly.
And that's like how this industry works.
You know what I mean?
So there's that argument.
But then on a personal level, I'm like, but that shit makes me so anxious because You know what?
I think I'd rather walk the carpet in a safe outfit because I don't like wearing outrageous things.
Like, actually, that's not true.
I do.
But outrageous insinuates that it's like ugly, like it's really ugly, like it's objective.
It's almost I mean, nothing in this sort of nothing in fashion is objective, I guess.
But like. objectively hideous.
I like to believe that I have decent taste and I wouldn't wear something completely outrageous.
I mean, I have.
I have.
But I would like to think that right now, who I am today, I have learned enough about myself and about what I like and what I think is cool that I wouldn't do that.
And so I'd rather wear something safe that I really believe in than wear something outrageous for the sake of wearing something outrageous.
But I guess if I really, let's say I really like the outrageous outfit, then I'd rather wear that.
You know what it comes down to, honestly?
I would rather wear whatever outfit I feel more confident in.
If I feel more confident in the outrageous one, I'd rather wear that.
I don't care if people talk about it or not, whatever.
If I feel more confident in the safe one, I'd rather wear the safe one and have people not talk about it, whatever.
Do you see what I'm saying?
I'd rather wear whatever.
One makes me feel more confident, and people's reactions or their opinions about the outfit actually doesn't really matter to me.
So that's kind of where I stand there.
So I can't really choose because I don't know how I feel about the outfit.
So take that would you rather game and Okay, next.
Would you rather never cut your hair again or never dye it again?
I love having short hair so much.
I love it so much that I would rather never dye my hair again.
I don't even know what my natural hair color looks like anymore, because I haven't seen it in seven, eight years, because I've been dyeing my hair for so long.
Bleaching it for the most part, but also dyeing it dark or doing a little highlight.
I've done so many different random things.
Even though I've been dying it for so long and I have no clue what it would look like not dyed.
I think that I find more self-expression these days in the haircut rather than the hair color.
Also, I would hate the feeling of having super long hair like down to my butt, down to my knees, if I could never cut it again.
Oh my God, no.
So never dyed again because I love a good haircut.
I love having a pixie.
I love it.
I've never loved a haircut more in my life.
It's a bit controversial.
Some people love it.
Some people hate it.
Don't care because I fucking love it.
It's the best haircut I've ever had.
It's so easy.
It genuinely improves my life.
And I think it looks cool.
So I absolutely love it.
And even if I didn't have a pixie, I don't know, maybe I'd have like some like blunt weird, like bob or something or like a shaggy.
Whatever the fuck I love.
I'm in a phase of my life now where I want to experiment with the haircuts.
Who knows how long I'll have this pixie?
Might be the next 20 years.
I don't know.
But I might grow it out and do something else weird.
But either way, I think that there's more expression in the cut than the color in some ways.
Some people might disagree with me.
It depends on what type of cut you like on yourself.
If you like long hair, you know, there's less variation there.
You might like color more.
But for me personally, I find more expression in the cut.
Okay and last but not least, would you rather never wear skirts again or never wear pants again?
This is tough, because I love both.
I love a long skirt, especially down to my, you know, calf, calf area.
I love like a three quarter length skirt, love wear all the time, but I also wear pants all the time.
I would say I wear them equal amount.
The thing about a skirt is that a skirt's definitely a little bit less comfortable than a pant.
Pants are very comfortable and you can also move a bit more in them.
You're not worried about flashing anyone or your skirt flying up when you're wearing a pant.
Nothing's flying up.
You have a bit more flexibility and mobility.
I'm going to choose pants for that reason, but just know I'd really miss a skirt, because I fucking love a skirt.
I wear skirts all the time.
But also I will say too, I don't really like mini skirts as much.
I like them, but I don't like love them.
I also don't love like a knee length skirt.
It's fine.
It's not my favorite.
Like, I really like a very particular length of a skirt that goes down to, like you know, mid shin, mid calf.
Yeah.
And that's kind of the only skirt length I like.
Whereas I like many different lengths of pants.
You know, I like a capri length.
I like shorts of all different lengths.
Like I like more forms of pants than I do skirts.
So I'd have more options.
So I think that's the more responsible choice.
And I can like do a high kick in a pant and I can't do that in a skirt because somebody would see my butthole.
So that's my answer.
Okay, wait, that's it.
That was Would You Rather.
I had such a good time.
I love playing games.
I'm just a silly girl who likes to play games.
